In a medium sized bowl, mix together the cornstarch and water. If you would like to add food coloring, mix it in with the water first before adding the cornstarch.
Once the mixture is formed, it's ready to play with! If you press on it firmly with your hands (or pound it), the oobleck will turn to a solid. When you lift it up, it will turn to liquid.
